Anyway, why do they still keep bringing back that worthless pile of human garbage James Woods whenever they make anything based on the 90s Hercules movie? Gina Carano looks like Jane Fonda next to him.

Or why the fuck is Joss Whedon still a thing when the reports are he wasn't allowed to be left alone with the underage actresses on Buffy? Or all the casting couch shit he pulls.

The people whining about her being cancelled were complaining about her character being a Mary Sue or whatever before this.

Because a character can't be developed further after that due to initial complaints and be made into a better more enjoyable character and peoples views aren't allowed to ever evolved or develop in any way..........

Great. Thanks for the getting the timeline down
EDIT: Just to be clear, I was checking with you that no one did anyone to Gina before the pronoun thing. I was 99% sure so thanks for confirming.

So let's recap what happened

Everyone:.....
Still Everyone:...
Gina: I dont like what your doing and your pronouns and you are all bad for cancelling people
Everyone: WTF? What did we do now? Who was even talking about pronouns to you?
Gina: Because you don't agree with me, your all Nazi
Disney: WTF, Gina
Except people were sending her abuse demanding she put pronouns in her bio. She refused and then they only got worse.

Welcome to finding out certain people are given far more "protection" because they're being deemed "On the right side of history".

Look who is being most silent about the recent allegations and yet who was loud and proud about knowing him and him being on side.

I mean Whedon's pal Devin Faraci literally admitted on twitter to walking up to multiple women at parties and grabbing them by the crotch and was then promoted to editor of Birth Death Movies. He was eventually fired and ousted but that was only when staff all refused to work under him

...Yes, and?
Do you think that there's hypocrisy in that, somewhere? You think that criticizing a character or the writing means that they wanted her to lose her job?
Hot damn, are you finally at the point where you understand that criticism an aspect of a thing isn't wanting it to be censored?

Or is this new revelation gonna evaporate as soon as somebody criticizes some cliche fanservice in a video game?

Yes, surely the social conservatives are the real holocaust victims.
whoosh


Is that literally the same people, or is it some people complaining about one thing and then others complaining about something else?
In the pictures used, hilariously enough it's not the same people.

Though in the name of honestly I will say there were complaints from the same people, it's just the idiots who are trying to portray hypocrisy (because no character is allowed to evolved, no people allowed to change their views over time, everyone must always be set in place and they never developed Cara Dune any further as a character etc etc) managed to fail to actually show the same people calling her one thing and then another.

You can tell by the thumbnails.

On the "She's a Mary Sue?" side are Clownfish TV and Ethan Van Sciver (SP?) on the "Mob trying to have her fired this is bad" side are The Quartering (twice) and The Dark Titans with Vara Dark.

Literally the same people. It's wild
Yeh not in the images you posted though lol.

You can easily tell by the thumbnail styles it's not the same people in the images.

Problem is when people do literally come out claiming they want moral codes in place to stop certain content being allowed.

Criticism isn't censorship by claiming things are harmful or shouldn't be allowed well that's very much presenting a view said elements should be censored.

Hell censors of the past were very much pushing the "We don't want to censor anything" angle. Mary Whitehouse being a great example


She even says "We don't want anything censored or banned" or words to that effect. Then later goes on to say how she's trying to push the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) to do their job and ban or demand cuts to films.

I've always understood that. Why do you think this is a "new revelation" for me? Can you quote me saying the opposite?

Houseman you know this song and dance by now.

Any criticism of certain things certain groups like is trying to censor it. Can't say Neil Druckman's The Last of Us Part II writing is bad or it's trying to censor him. But it's perfectly fine for said groups to then say anime butt poses cause rape and shouldn't be allowed to exist because that's just criticism not trying to censor anything.

It's the same song and Dance bullshit censors have been pulling since the days of Mary Whitehouse. The "We don't want anything censored or banned but this movie is abhorrent and the authorities should do their duty to make sure the public never has to suffer it, but don't you dare try to call what I'm saying bullshit or tell me to shut up and stop spreading lies and bullshit or you're censoring me".

I don't ever know if I should talk about this particular subject. Because I'm not even sure I read what Gina wrote properly. I continue to think she said that Nazis made existing biases worse and neighbors turned in neighbors due to the sway of the political force in question.

But I read your link. And again I'm stumped. Why does that twitter mess matter? This is what people on Twitter do. You take a side, fringe from the opposition will come to roast you.

Kinda yes that was her point and that as said before the camps and chambers you have to push to dehumanise or legitimise attacks on certain groups. Like I dunno say pushing the idea of using Eugenics to weed remove said people from the gene pool etc......

In terms of why it matters.
Well the claim being pushed is "Gina was mean for no reason calling people out for things no-one did" when as the many, many screenshots the account I posted has compiled of many many more posters sending her threats and abuse. No Gina calling people out for being nasty to her wasn't due to 3 people or just a couple of people being nasty or as some are pushing the claim she did it for no reason other than to be mean. Gina has had month after month of this bullshit and seemingly unlike a lot of celebrities she was actually using social media and not paying some manager to do it for her so if she was checking her mentions yeh for the past year or more she's just been seeing floods of abuse pouring into her mentions so she called it out. Which then the people really hating her just used as ammo to try and frame her as mean and nasty and attacking minority communities.

Yes this is what happens on twitter but now it seems people are mad because Gina called it out to an extent and you're not allowed to do that, you can only complain about people being nasty to you if you're "Righteously fighting on the right side of history" or some nonsense like that.

The truth is being lost and instead it's just narratives about what happened and what went down and relying on people not checking or trying to suppress or ignore claims that contradict the narratives.

Well, you know: people. There are some people who do one thing, and some people who do another thing, and there's potentially at least some overlap between those people, so they're all really "people", aren't they?

And I know that is God's own truth, because here's some random person on Twitter's opinion. QED.
